Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) is a novel technology, which has been widely applied in biomedicine, especially in wound healing, dermatological treatment, hemostasis, and cancer treatment. In most cases, CAP treatment will interact with innumerable blood capillaries. Therefore, it is important and necessary to understand the effects of CAP treatment on endothelial cell metabolism. In this study, the metabolite profiling of plasma treatment on endothelial cells was measured by gas chromatography tandem time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC-TOF-MS). We found that 695 signals (metabolites) were detected by GC-TOF-MS and then evaluated using orthogonal projections to latent structures discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA). All the differential metabolites were listed, and proline and xanthosine were the two of the most downregulated metabolites by plasma treatment. By comprehensive metabolic pathway analysis with the KEGG pathway, we showed that alanine, aspartate, glutamate, and purine metabolism pathways were the most significantly suppressed after gas plasma treatment in human endothelial cells. Our finding gives an overall picture of the metabolic pathways affected by plasma treatment in endothelial cells.

We aimed to explore the potential effects of Xinfeng capsule (XFC) on urine metabolic profiling in adjuvant-induced arthritis (AA) rats by using gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC-TOF/MS). GC-TOF/MS technology was combined with multivariate statistical approaches, such as principal component analysis (PCA), partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), and orthogonal projections to latent structures discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA). These methods were used to distinguish the healthy group, untreated group, and XFC treated group and elucidate potential biomarkers. Nine potential biomarkers such as hippuric acid, adenine, and L-dopa were identified as potential biomarkers, indicating that purine metabolism, fat metabolism, amino acid metabolism, and energy metabolism were disturbed in AA rats. This study demonstrated that XFC is efficacious for RA and explained its potential metabolomics mechanism.

SummaryHuman endothelial cells isolated from umbilical cordswere solubilized in Triton X-100 and examined by crossedimmunoelec-trophoresis using rabbit antiserum against endothelial cells. Endogenous labelling of the endothelialcell proteins with 14Cmannose followed by crossed immunoelectrophoresis and autoradiography revealed about 10 immunoprecipitates. Four of these endothelial cell glycoproteins were labelled by lactoperoxidase catalyzed iodination and thus were surface located. Three of the surface located glycoproteins showed reduced electrophoretic mobility after incubation of the endothelial cells with neuraminidase and were therefore sialoglycoproteins. Amphiphilicity of endothelial cell glycoproteins was studied by crossed hydrophobic interaction immunoelectrophoresis with phenyl-Sepharose in the intermediate gel. Amphiphilic proteins also show increasing electrophoretic migration velocity with decreasing concentration of Triton X-100 in the first dimension gels. Five of the endothelial cell glycoproteins were shown to be amphiphilic using these two techniques.Two monoclonal antibodies against the platelet glycoprotein complex Ilb-IIIa and glycoprotein IlIa, respectively, reacted with the same precipitate of endothelial cells. When a polyclonal antibody against the platelet glycoprotein complex Ilb-IIIa was incorporated into the intermediate gel the position of two endothelial cell precipitates were lowered. One of these was a sialoglycoprotein.

SummaryIt has recently been shown that the fibrinolytic components plasminogen and tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) both bind to cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). After cleavage of t-PA by plasmin, “single-chain” t-PA (sct-PA) is converted into “two-chain” t-PA (tct-PA), which differs from the former in a number of respects. We compared binding of sct-PA and tct-PA to the surface of HUVEC. Removal of t-PA bound to HUVEC by a mild treatment with acid and a subsequent quantification of eluted t-PA both by activity- and immunoradiometric assays revealed that, at concentrations between 10 and 500 nM, HUVEC bind about 3-4 times more sct-PA than tct-PA. At these concentrations, both sct-PA and tct-PA remain active when bound to HUVEC. Mutual competition experiments showed that sct-PA and tct-PA can virtually fully inhibit binding of each other to HUVEC, but that an about twofold higher concentration of tct-PA is required to prevent halfmaximal binding of sct-PA than visa versa. These results demonstrate that sct-PA and tct-PA bind with different affinities to the same binding sites on HUVEC.

Lps Binding

SummaryHuman endothelial cells, when incubated with bacterial endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS), modify their surface in association with prominent production of procoagulant tissue factor (TF) activity. This deleterious biological effect of LPS has been shown previously to be enhanced approximately 10-fold by the presence of hemoglobin (Hb), a recently recognized LPS binding protein that causes disaggregation of LPS and increases the biological activity of LPS in a number of in vitro assays. The present study was performed to test the hypothesis that Hb enhances the LPS-induced procoagulant activity of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) by increasing LPS binding to the cells. The binding of 3H-LPS to HUVEC was determined in the absence or presence of Hb or two other known LPS-binding proteins, human serum albumin (HSA) and IgG. LPS binding was substantially increased in the presence of Hb, in a Hb concentration-dependent manner, but was not increased by HSA or IgG. Hb enhancement of LPS binding was observed in serum-free medium, indicating that there was no additional requirement for any of the serum factors known to participate in the interaction of LPS with cells (e.g., lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-binding protein (LBP) and soluble CD14 (sCD14)). Hb enhancement of LPS binding also was observed in the more physiologic condition of 100% plasma. LPS-induced TF activity was stimulated by Hb, but not by HSA or IgG. In serum-free medium, TF activity was not stimulated under any of the conditions tested. Ultrafiltration of LPS was dramatically increased after incubation with Hb but not with HSA or IgG, suggesting that LPS disaggregation by Hb was responsible for the enhanced binding of LPS to HUVEC and the subsequent stimulation of TF activity.

SummaryFactor XII has long been implicated in the intrinsic pathway of fibrinolysis, but the mechanism by which it triggers plasminogen activation and targets fibrinolysis has not been established. In the present study, the assembly and function of activated Factor XII (F.XIIa), prourokinase (pro-u-PA), high molecular weight kininogen (H-kininogen), and prekallikrein on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) was investigated. 125I-prekallikrein was shown to bind to HUVEC via receptor-bound H-kininogen in the presence of 50 μM ZnCl2. After the addition of F.XIIa, 78% of the 125I-prekallikrein initially bound to HUVEC was converted to 125I-kallikrein. However, only 6% of the HUVEC-bound 125I-pro-u-PA was thereby activated. This discrepancy was shown to be related to rapid dissociation (>50% within 15 min) of prekallikrein/kallikrein, but not pro-u-PA, from HUVEC. Increasing the level of cell-bound kallikrein increased the portion of cell-bound pro-u-PA activated, indicating that their co-localization was important for this pathway. Finally, F.XIIa was shown to trigger plasminogen activation on HUVEC via this pathway. This assembly of reactants on the endothelium suggests a mechanism whereby local fibrinolysis may be triggered by blood coagulation.
